Laura’s comments from the LASFS group.

Thanks to both Nick and Karl for all the advice.

I wanted to let you know that Smashwords is conducting a new promotion called "Read a Book a Week" from March 2-8, 2014. During that promotion period, The Reality Matrix Effect will be available (in multiple electronic formats) for only $1, instead of the retail price of $3.99. If you haven't yet bought the book, now is the time to try it! You can get the Smashwords edition at http://tinyurl.com/my-rme .

I must admit that I'm nervous about promoting my book to a group like LASFS. This is my first--and probably only--novel. But if Shrodinger's cat is neither dead nor alive until it is observed, I guess you could say that a book doesn't really exist until it's read! (Actually, I have had enough readers to earn my first royalty check on the Kindle edition, but I haven't had many sales since then.)

In any case, I invite you to take advantage of the promotion.

Thanks again for your advice. I am going to try to get to a LASFS meeting sometime.

I'm not sure if this group still active, but I thought I'd post a message in case it is.

My name is Laura Remson Mitchell. I've been a science fiction fan for as long as I can remember, and I recently published a science fiction novel of my own, The Reality Matrix Effect, which is available at http://tinyurl.com/R-Matrix-FX as a Kindle edition and at http://tinyurl.com/my-RME as a Smashwords edition (multiple formats). It's also available at Barnes and Noble as a Nook book. (Note: The tinyurl addresses are shortcuts for the full URLs.)

Though I haven't gotten around to attending a live meeting, I've heard about LASFS from a friend. So when I saw this group on Goodreads, I thought I'd try to connect electronically. I hope to see a response soon to tell me this group is still going.
